Complaint

Lack of harmonized procedures between Namibian and Angolan customs authorities make exports into Angola very difficult and generally frustrating.  

Status note

During the NTBs national workshop held in Angola on 30 November 2011, it was reported that Angola has modernised customs procedures by reducing dwell time to 48 hours. Angola is also developed simplified trade regimes for informal and small scale traders, incorporating them into the trading system.
